Fiction Book Group with Alexis
Discusses Participation by Anna Moschovakis
Led by former Greenlight general manager Alexis, our Fiction Book Group meets monthly to discuss paperback fiction, reading broadly in contemporary fiction with the occasional diversion into classics.
For April, the group discusses Anna Moschovakis' Participation. In this, two reading groups, unofficially called Love and Anti-Love, falter amidst political friction and signs of environmental collapse—offering a prescient look at communication in a time of rupture. As the groups consider—or neglect—their syllabi, and connections between members deepen, a mentor disappears, a translator questions his role, a colleague known as “the capitalist” becomes a point of fixation, and “the news reports” filter through in fragments. With incisive prose and surprising structural shifts, Participation forms an alluring vision of community, and a love story like no other.
